"Alex needs to get back to Alex's level. It's pretty cut and dried," coach Glen Gulutzan said. Goligoski has three assists and a plus-2 rating in 10 games, but the Stars expect more from him. He owns the second highest cap hit on the team this season, at $4.6 million, and agreed that he might be putting too much pressure on himself. "I think it's probably a little of that," he said. "I just have to relax and simplify my game, and just make the smart play."
